Kids enjoy one of Montshire Museum’s highlight events of the winter, the igloo build, when participants learn to build an actual igloo that will be insulated, sturdy, and strong enough to support the weight of a polar bear.
Celebrate the season with Igloo Build and the Science of Winter NORWICH—Explore and enjoy the winter season at the Montshire Museum of Science’s annual event, Igloo Build and the Science of Winter, on Saturday, Feb. 16, from 10:30 a.m.-2 p.m. It will be a day filled with hands-on winter activities, including one of the museum’s longest-running traditions – Igloo Build. Learn how to build an insulated, sturdy house strong enough to support the weight of a polar bear. Having previously
held a position in the Vermont Chamber of Commerce’s Top 10 Winter Events choices, the Montshire’s Igloo Build is guaranteed fun for the whole family. Dr. Bert Yankielun, engineer and author of the book “How to Build an Igloo and Other Snow Structures,” will be on hand to offer a demonstration, as well as instruction on the structural secrets of building with snow – from making an initial snow angel to placing the final block on the
dome and sawing your way out. The instructional session starts at 10:30 a.m. and the igloo-building portion of the day ends at 2 p.m. Other activities include ice experiments in the Science Discovery Lab and a winter snowshoe,weather and trail conditions permitting.

EPIC
WHITE RIVER JUNCTION—The Freedom & Unity Youth Film Contest has opened and is excited to receive submissions from youth filmmakers in Vermont. Inspired by the Vermont Movie Project, The Freedom & Unity Youth Film Contest invites young Vermonters to create films exploring the life and culture of the Green Mountain State. Through film, young people explore the issues that they find meaningful, make connections between the past and the present, and share their personal stories. They build filmmaking and communication skills while learning more about themselves and the state they call home. Last year’s first place winners were comprised of youth from throughout the state of Vermont and parts of bordering New Hampshire: “Wagging Tale” by Scarlett Clark of Champlain College, Burlington “Voices of Tibet” by Jeffrey Lloyd of Champlain College, Burlington “Ingredients” by Dominique Cornacchia and McKenzie Cordell of Champlain College, Burlington “Freefall” by Riley Allen of Essex High School, Essex “In Search of [Upper Valley] Driving Heaven” by Eli Kaliski of Thetford Academy, Thetford “All In Order” by Nicholas Fish and Dan Denton of Stafford Technical Center, Rutland “Inside My Heart There Is A Lemon” by Leah Kaliski of Thetford Academy,

As for the time management skills, many young people don’t truly develop them until their college years, while our graduates are fortunate to head off to college already armed with these vital time management skills,” Smith observes.

and countries gives our students a unique set of skills and perspective,” he said. Adding, “These are not vacations, however. All of our students have work to do on the hill and in the class-
room while working remotely from abroad. It is not uncommon to see a KMS student who is thousands of miles from home using Google Hangouts to connect with a teacher in Ver-
mont. KMS students are expected to manage their schoolwork while traveling and as a result develop unique communication and collaboration skills in the process. “The training and

training sessions can range from directed training drills or timed runs on a course. KMS students closely collaborate with the coaching staff, which includes former Olympians and Olympic coaches, NCAA Division I All-Americans and professional strength and conditioning trainers. “The level of expertise and experience at KMS rivals that of any collegiate team and most professional ones, too. Our students are lucky to have incredibly skilled guides, who are here to push, encourage, shape and hone the kids’ competition skills to the point where any KMS student has the potential to make a national team, Olympics, Junior Worlds, or just to compete in college and beyond,” Smith said. The KMS appeal Asked about the appeal of KMS for student athletes, Allen said, “Beyond its strength in coaching and its 21st century academic program, KMS appeals to students due to its variety of enrollment options. Having one, four, and nine month options gives young students options to come get a taste of the Academy program for a short time, and then as they get older, allows them to refine their commitment to and passion for their sport and the academy lifestyle, at which point, they can stay longer before they ultimately decide to matriculate into the full-term program. “In addition, we allow winter-term students to integrate into our academic program if they withdraw from their sending school, or our instructors will teach them their sending school’s curriculum. Having those two options is appealing to families and students.” The school’s track record of many KMS graduates continuing to compete after high school may provide another enticement with the school well represented on the U.S. Alpine and National Freestyle and Freeski Teams, in Division I collegiate racing, and the Olympics.

Get prepared for summer camp season Summer camp season is just around the corner. Many people put off summer camp planning until it is too late. Keep in mind that camps begin registration early in the year and have specific cut-off dates for enrollment. Here are a few tips to help plan a summer camp agenda. • Attend an orientation seminar. Take the time to visit prospective camps for a tour, and use this open house as an opportunity to learn more about the programs offered. • Fill out the enrollment package completely. Expect to submit personal information, including a medical background and proof of insurance, names and numbers of emergency contacts, and any other pertinent information as it applies to the camper. • Establish payment schedules. The ACA says camp costs range from $100 to more than $1,500 per week. However, many accredited camps offer some sort of financial assistance for children from families with limited financial means. If cost is a factor, be sure to broach the subject. • Prepare children for the physical challenges a camp may present. Summer camp activities may be rigorous, and campers may need to be cleared by a physician before starting. Children also can increase their levels of physical activity compared to the often sedentary nature of winter. • Shop for supplies. Camps are likely to provide a list of requirements with regard to clothing and other equipment campers will need. Make sure kids have camp necessities before they leave. • Keep children in the loop. Engage children in the planning process to help alleviate their fears and get them excited about summer camp. Summer camp can foster lifelong memories. Parents can help kids prepare in advance for the fun that’s soon to arrive.

Winterfest:
Voted at Top 10 Winter Event by Vermont Chamber of Commerce; expands to include more events, locations.
continued from page 8B to create,” said Andy Paluch, executive director of Come Alive Outside. “It has grown and evolved through collaboration, and each year gets bigger and better as different organizations step up to take the lead on various parts.” For example, Center Street sledding has evolved over the years into a highlight of Winterfest, with twin tracks down the street, hay-bale “guardrails” and professional snow grooming through a collaboration of Casella Construction, Shrewsbury Snowbirds, Rutland Rec, and the Rutland Department of Public Works. Similarly, moonlight snowshoeing and a wine tasting at Rutland Country Club were added this year.
“I love how people have built on our successes from the past and brought new ideas to the table each year,” said Rutland Rec’s April Cioffi, who is on the organizing committee. “The fact that no one organization ‘owns’ Rutland Winterfest is one of its greatest strengths – it allows anyone with an idea and the willingness to get involved to build on the framework and expand the offerings.” Professional snow sculptors, including five-time national championship competitor Lisa Stevens, are among the new draws. The well-loved chili contest and amateur snow sculpture contest will be back in Main Street Park, but amateurs will be joined by professionals like Stevens, who will produce intricate
and beautiful works of art Feb. 22 and 23, which will be unveiled on the last day of Winterfest, Feb. 24. Other activities include a story walk, ice skating, a Teddy bear race, indoor games and fun, a dance, fat bike riding, and The Real Rutland Feud. Most events are free. The complete list of events, times, charges and locations is available online at utlandrec.com/ winterfestevents. “By late winter, some Vermonters are ready to hunker down till spring, but Rutland’s Winterfest provides dozens of reasons to get out and enjoy this beautiful region, and all it has to offer,” said Mary Cohen, executive director of the Rutland Region Chamber of Commerce.

Four high schools to offer new pilot math program Four high schools have been chosen to pilot a new, much-anticipated course to strengthen math proficiencies in high school students before they graduate. Beginning with the 2019-20 academic year, the course, Essential Math for College
and Careers, or EMC2, will be offered at Green Mountain Union High School, Richford Junior/Senior High School, Springfield High School and Stowe High School. Vermont Student Assistance Corp., the Vermont State Colleges System and

the Vermont Agency of Education have teamed up to create the new math course so that students will leave high school with the math skills to begin college and career training programs. It will eventually be available to all high schools in Vermont. VSAC research has shown that students with higher-level math skills are more likely to enroll – and successfully complete – college and career training. Without the requisite math skills, students are far less likely to continue their education and if they do, they are often required to take remedial courses, incurring an extra cost while not earning credit. The course is being built from a framework of open education source materials collected and used by 13 states who are trying to address similar challenges. “In Vermont, we have identified 16 Essential Concepts for EMC2, which can easily translate into a local high school’s graduation proficiencies. This project represents an excellent collaborative effort

across three state agencies and local education systems, and I’m looking forward to next steps in implementation.” said Heather Bouchey, deputy secretary of the Agency of Education. Students who successfully complete EMC2 can enroll in college-level math courses at any of the Vermont State Colleges and Community College of Vermont without the need for remediation or an Accuplacer test score in math. “The course encourages students to explore mathematical tasks and work to explain their thinking and understanding to each other. Student ownership and student voice are essential elements of success in this course and in their education and training after graduation,” said Yasmine Ziesler, chief academic officer at the Vermont State Colleges System. Students who are interested in taking the course should contact their school counselor to learn more about registration requirements.
